I've been talking to this guy for 5+ years almost 6 he has been my customer he was always crying when i wasn't around there was even one instance where when i was moving to a new place he thought i left him for good and he was blowing up my texts in desperation wondering where i was at, and he said he was dead inside assuming i left... as of late i sense, feel he has became distant. He even threatened to replace me with a new person. I am disappointed yet i try to not let it get to me and i'm prepared if he does.
I would go out of my way to cheer him up, yet yesterday he announced his girlfriend broke up with him, so he hast been communicating much as he needs time to bask in grief as he should after breakup departure, he came to me saying "Sorry he is having a tough time getting over this breakup" i could feel his pain as i've had my heartbroken many times by men that i loved more than they loved me and many of them left got bored, replaced.
I however never lost my confidence and i'm no homewrecker i would never tell a man to breakup with their girl for me as they would just do the same thing to me, cheat. so i just noticed a shift he seems ok if i were to leave his life or maybe he feel consolation feeling i will always be there. While it's good to be unbothered what do i expect i don't think i was the reason they broke up but he probably is just looking for a new girl and i won't let it bug me as i'm used to this. it's just sad to feel their desperation for you has lessened and they don't really need you, maybe you are on a roster of their "Options" but time will tell and it will play out, i will just continue to show up with love and care and if he is bored that's not my problem it a him problem and he needs to do the shadow work. It drives me crazy that he pretends he is into something when i feel he is pretending. i'm gonna take the lead.

Dang girl, that does sound like a pretty messy situation. On one hand, it was good that you were there to support your friend after his breakup. Breakups can really suck and it's nice to have people to lean on.
But at the same time, I get why you might feel like a backup plan or a roster option instead of a real priority to him. The way he's been acting more distant and threatened to replace you is definitely not cool. You don't deserve to be treated like you're not good enough or that he could just toss you aside.
Honestly it sounds like he might not be over his ex yet and could just be using you for emotional support until he finds someone new. I wouldn't be surprised if he does start trying to replace you. As much as that would probably hurt, at least then you'll know where you stand and that it's time to move on from this confusing situationship.
You seem really sweet and you definitely don't need drama like that in your life. The best thing to do is hold your head high and keep doing you - don't let this guy make you question your self-worth. If he wants to be with you, he needs to step up and prove it. But honestly at this point it may be better to just move on and find someone who truly appreciates you!
We are ALL replaceable. It is a part of life.
That may be more subjective than fact. As for me You can never replace my DAD, my sisters or family. Even when i truly loved someone in my heart no one can take that spot.
